A group of thousands of migrants from south of the border have been steadily working their way toward the U.S. in recent weeks. As many as 3,000 reached the border with San Diego, and there have been some serious concerns about what the outcome would be.
Would the migrants just be able to cross directly into the U.S.? If not, where would they go, how, and when?
It has been determined by the federal government that the migrants seeking asylum in the U.S. will have to wait in Mexico while they are processed as part a new plan called “Remain in Mexico.”
In the past, people seeking asylum had been permitted to stay in the U.S. rather than being deported while they waited for their asylum cases to be processed. But not anymore, as they now have to prove that they are being persecuted before they are privileged with entry.
At the same time, apparently Mexican laws state that the country does not allow people who are seeking to gain asylum in another country, such as the U.S., to stay in Mexico while their asylum cases are being processed.
So, people who have reached the border are camping in tents, sleeping in fields, or finding any other shelter they can. The problem is likely to only get worse as the federal government has said that up to 10,000 migrants could reach the border in the upcoming weeks and months.
Many of the migrants, claimed by the media to be “refugees” rather than what they actually are — economic migrants — are getting impatient. Some have begun acting more aggressively by rushing up to the border and even throwing rocks or other objects at border patrol personnel.
In an effort to protect its borders and citizens, as is its duty and right, the U.S. had sent close to 6,000 active-duty military troops to the border. President Donald Trump has been attempting to respond to the crisis before it gets out of hand. However, the administration’s actions have been met with stiff resistance from the judiciary.
A federal judge prevented the Trump Administration from being able to enforce a ban on asylum for migrants who cross the border into the U.S. illegally. In response, the White House said if those people were able to enter the U.S. illegally, that would allow “countless illegal aliens to pour into our country.”
U.S. border patrol agents released tear gas in order to respond to violent migrants who were throwing rocks and attempting to force their way across the fence — not exactly the best way to improve your image.
Kirstjen Nielsen, Homeland Security Secretary, said that DHS “will not tolerate this type of lawlessness and will not hesitate to shut down ports of entry for security and public safety reasons…We will also seek to prosecute to the fullest extent of the law anyone who destroys federal property, endangers our frontline operators, or violates our nation’s sovereignty.”

They need to prosecute those who are FUNDING these people for conspiracy to commit treason. These NGOs and democrats KNOW they are LYING to these people and setting them up for failure.
There are troubled countries all over the world. The citizens of those countries should stay and work to improve their own countries rather than invade any other country. Unfortunately there is not enough room or assets even in this wealthy country to open our borders and take in everyone from everywhere.
well said sir.,there are poor countries all over the world, stay where you are and change the countries to get what you need to live. No NGO should fund this crap… do something to help poor people all over the world but don’t support illegal entry to USA…These are people that should be deported..you and I pay to support their health care , living etc..and crime when they cannot get money…rapes, diseases they bring like TB, leprosy etc…say NO to sanctuary cities and illegals..
agree, as well as stop producing children beyond their ability to pay. China found out and acted cutting to one child per couple until the economy is balanced. They succeeded and relaxed to two children per couple. Even the Pope commented “God never told them to pro create like rabbits. The Church even approved a calender for birth control,
So. If I throw some rocks I will get what I want?
If you throw rocks the only thing you’re going to get is tear gas in your face. It’s time for these migrants to head back where they came from since so many of them are criminals!
Praise God for the “core” of Trump’s administration that is trying to protect our country.
Thank you Mexico for working with this administration.
MAGA now and in 2020
1882, 1885, 1887 immigration laws. Some had to denounce their country to enter USA, also some had to have a USA sponsor.
Mexican President has a GREAT IDEA and wants to prosecute the instigators of the INVASION that some call a “caravan” . They are the criminals who put young men (who comprise the majority of this invasion and do not qualify for citizenship) telling them to illegally invade USA.
Hey !!! Folks. Remember Ellis Island ??? NYC and the Statue of Liberty and the late 1800s ??? (1) Someone entering the US of A had to have a US citizen sponsor(s). (2) Must be put into detention awaiting a background check and a health check for diseases. (3) had to denounce their previous flag and learn English. (4) Learn the Pledge of Allegiance to Old Glory over a bible. (5) Denounce any favor to anti-American cultures. My grand parents families came over from Ireland and Britain in the early 1900s. They went through Ellis Island. Isn’t it Great. Being born in the US of A, is great. God bless the Greatest Nation on the face of the Earth, and YES, we can brag about it.
You are right ,Raygun., My father came over from Sicily and went through the “Island’…..He had to be in quarantine AND CHECKED FOR COMMUNICABLE DISEASES, HAD TO SHOW PROOF OF SPONSORSHIP……he had to pledge allegiance to the United states of America, learn English and denounce allegiance to any and all foreign powers……..Maybe they should open it up again?
The Ellis Island concept is a good one but the logistics along the 1000 mile border are a little different. We could funnel people through the island by requiring that ships carrying immigrants dock there. Maybe with a proper wall, we could funnel immigrants through a few specific points where enclosures could be set up to handle them. It would be a major project. In the meantime, we must not allow mass groups of invaders to cross the border. If we stop them now, it will have some deterrent effect on future mass invaders. Also, any American organizations that are providing support to the invaders should be scrutinized and prosecuted. It is unconscionable that the Chicago group is a 501(c)(3) tax exempt organization. It is also wrong for federal judges to be blocking the administration from doing its job. Chief Justice Roberts is wrong. There are Bush judges, Clinton judges and Obama judges as well as Trump judges, but there are too many of the former and not enough of the latter.
Thank God for our President!
If you throw rocks the only thing you’re going to get his tear gas in your face. It’s time for these migrants to head back where they came from since so many of them are criminals!
If you or I crossed the border going South without the proper ID, we would be in jail within hours or even minutes. Their immigration laws are strict. Remember the military vet that mistakenly crossed into Mexico with antique weapons in his vehicle ?? I’m not sure, but he might still be in jail. That was several YEARS ago. Let Mexico deal with it. They let them through, it’s their problem.
Why is the criminal Democrat Party Mob leadership not being indicted and prosecuted for breaking our immigration laws and protecting the illegal aliens from deportation so they cause them to vote for the criminal Democrat Party Mob back into power and replace us, the American voters. as well!! Don’t we have Justice and law and order in America any more??? They are supporting a foreign illegal alien army to use as illegal alien Democrat voters to conquer us and rule us in the future!!! That is the real truth in all of this problem and the question is are we, the American people, going to let them do this to us with out a fight to the finish or become a conquered people and let the illegal aliens rule us????????????
ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS ARE COSTING OUR GOVERNMENT $300 BILLION A YEAR, WE TAXPAYERS ARE PAYING FOR THAT. THE WALL WILL COST $70 BILLION , DO THE MATH. IF THEY GAIN ENTRY, THE COST WOULD CLIMB TO WAY OVER THE $300 BILLION WE ARE NOW PAYING. WHY CAN’T THE BLIND DEMOCRATS AND UNWILLING REPUBLICANS SEE END RESULT, OR MAYBE THEY DO. THIS IS THE 4TH TIME IN HISTORY A PRESIDENT HAS WON THE ELECTORAL VOTE BUT NOT THE POPULAR VOTE BUT THE VERY FIRST TIME THERE HAS BEEN SUCH AN UPROAR OVER IT TO THE POINT THE DEMOCRATS WANT OUR CONSTITUTION CHANGED TO ADAPT TO WHAT THEIR OPINION OF RIGHT IS. FUNNY ISN’T IT? DEMOCRATS ARE TRAITORS TO AMERICA, NO RESPECT FOR OUR CONSTITUTION OR OUR PRESIDENT. THEY ARE SO DETERMINED TO GET HIM OUT OF OFFICE THEY ARE WILLING TO SEE OUR COUNTRY GO DOWN. SHAME ON THEM. I AGREE WITH THE ONE WHO SAID ” THE ONES FINANCING THE CARAVAN SHOULD BE CHARGED WITH TREASON” . IF EACH REPUBLICAN DONATED $1 THE WALL WOULD BE BUILT. GOD BLESS PRESIDENT TRUMP FOR STANDING STRONG. GOD BLESS AMERICA
Wait a minute, you mean the borders are open for the demoncrats to get more voters, they just need themselves approved This is terrible , On my trip up north I saw a bus broke down near Post, Texas and I stopped to ask them if they needed help and nobody could speak English and they were all men.This whole action is Humanist.AND IT explains it in the Humanist Manifesto 2,.(download Humanist Manifesto 2 AND LOOK UNDER World Community) The Humanist destroyed Greece, Rome, Babylon, etc. want to destroy our sovereignty and have open borders for the One World Order. This is ALSO THE SAME REASON THEY WILL NOT LET PRESIDENT Trump build the WALL. .
It’s about time we had a present that put a stop to the flow of immigrants come across the southern border . It might be too late to hold the line. For 60 years immigrants have been coming across that border. I’m in San Diego California. I am not racist but something needs to happen some sort a drastic change. There are so many Mexican people in the state it’s almost like The country of Mexico it’s part of the United States. What would Life in Mexico be like if it wasn’t for the United States. As a country we might be better off if we forest Mexico to be just another state in the USA. I’m not sure if we should close the border or open up.
In spite of the steady diet of misinformation (fake news) being fed to us by the unpatriotic press, we are waking up to reality. Globalism and open borders will inevitably kill this great nation. Thank God for Donald Trump!!!!
Not only are un-American democrats guilty of treason towards the USA but the United Nations is the real catalyst behind this invasion. The UN leaders should be held accountable for their criminal actions towards America and they should all be forced to leave the UN building in New York and the organization should be forced to assume a new residence in another country altogether.
Dear President Trump,
“BUILD THE DAMN WALL NOW” !
Thank you.
Thank you President Trump for standing strong among all you’re adversity. You’re the BEST!
The Democratic Party has lost their mines and they don’t care one dam bit about us true Americans your totally insane just because you have stolen tax payers money from them to make your lives comfortable and protected from harm possibly.
Perhaps we should start a go fund me account for the wall !!!
Bruce, that is so true! If every Trump voter would send in even a dollar, that would be a start. As you know, no demorat would help fund the wall.We need that wall ASAP!
It is encouraging to hear from so many Americans who “get it”. Who understand why we need to control our borders and who comes in. Our forefathers sure were smarter than we are today. THANK GOD FOR PRES. TRUMP. The manipulations going on behind the scenes all over the world by the one world globalists is terrifying and America is certainly their biggest target these days. Without fighting we haven’t a chance. Why everyone can’t see what is happening I don’t understand. Common sense and logic seem to have disappeared from America along with all the flood of immigrants who will never be Americans but stay foreigners even while living here. They flee their countries and then want to change us into what the fled. Makes no sense. Please go back and change your country and leave ours alone. Maybe all this is meant to show us the value of America that many have lost.
